It's been my experience that a *LOT* of conservative talk show hosts sold a bunch of crap that most people don't need and didn't need.
I remember Rush Limbaugh pushing Snapple, and services to lock your identity, and a whole host of stuff I considered garbage.
Are all these talk show hosts "despicable" because they push garbage?
And what makes you think Alex Jones knew they were false? I don't watch him, but over the years i've seen a lot of commentary about other stuff he's said, and the consensus is he gets it right most of the time.
That stuff about "turning the frogs gay"? That stuff is true. Stuff we are leaching into the water is indeed turning frogs "gay" and also causing mutations.
From what i've read, he's correct more often than he is wrong.
